Ihe plateau Of Arlington Heights offers the
most magnificent view to be beheld In
southern California, embracing the whole
of the Los Angeles valley, and extending
from San Pedro and Santa Monica on the
Pacific Ocean, across the plains to the foot
hills, and up to the snowy heights OF the
Sierra Madre mountains. This table land
or mesa is perfectly. level and unbroken,
but 20 feet higher than the elevation OF
Spring and Main streets. TO reach IT there
are no hills to climb, and as the streets lead

to it follow the same even grade, 1t Is as
easy of access as Washington Gardens. The
soil of Arlington Heights Is rich loan,
mellow and frlabie at all seasons, and easy
to cultivate. The vineyards and orchards
surrounding 1t give undisputed evidence
that every acre OF Arlington Heights will
produce grapes and fruit without irrigation.
A stratum of purest well water Is struck
anywhere on the tract at depth OF from ~
